Yup,

I would not believe it but for precidents elsewhere. EMC the storage 
manufacturer once delivered twice the storage we ordered and paid for but only 
gave us access to what we paid for. They called it preprovising, because they 
new we would eventually pay and the second order would be delivered with a 
software update. I expect it could be a substandard screen, or they may have 
decided it was easier to manage one screen standard.

I am still not sure I am not going mad.

Let me share an unsolicited Christmas gift I received yesterday, Some of 
you my be very surprised.

I am not so sure who gave it to me, was in HP or Microsoft on my Windows 10 
laptop?

I needed to upgrade my laptop a few months ago, I was inclined to get a 
touch screen model, but balked at the price, and most of the time I use it 
as a desktop replacement with two additional large screens.

I took the cheaper option *without *the touch screen but 16GB RAM, 256 SSD, 
I have being very happy with this laptop. Of note is if you spend more you 
can get a HDD/SSD combination model. However I discovered in the cheaper 
model I got there is a HDD slot I can move a 1TB SSD I have into, in time 
that is my only upgrade option remaining. 

Yesterday I had some urgent work and was delayed 40 minutes with various 
windows updates, which was seriously annoying.

Once all the updates completed I received my unexpected Christmas Gift, it 
was unwrapped, but I only discovered it accidentally.

*I got a touch screen on my existing laptop.*

No, I am not joking, I reviewed the computer specifications to check, this 
laptop did not come with a touch screen. But there it is, it is now a touch 
screen.

For the nostalgic amongst you, it is like an update reactivated the 
co-processor in my cheaper CPU. In the days where intel nobbled the 
co-processor unless you payed more.

Regards
Tony

Ho, ho, h ...

I delivered my christmas present today. It is something you can play with: 
A collection of bricks for twizzards and twiches who have everything else. 
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/qZyhuW3_UyQ/huWHUpCmAAAJ

Play with CSS, make something beautiful and send pictures of it 1)

All the best,
Santa Swiss

1) Sending pictures is a confirmation of the following: You are the owner 
of all intellectual properties and by sending or uploading your image you 
consent to my personal and commercial use of your pictures. TL;DR I get all 
the rights to do everything I want with your picture. You get nothing. As

I am hoping to have the multi-user wiki plugin set up so that it can server 
multiple wikis. Right now it is stable enough that I am using it on my 
wikis so that may be my christmas present.
